The Chinese drama is also receiving decent ratings on My Drama List, with an 8.3 out of 10 being awarded, but from just 27 viewers so far.
Comments on the site are also positive, and range from people talking about this being Cheng Lei’s third series premiering in almost as many weeks (Legend of the Female General and Shadow Love :
The color grading for this one is so good! Looks like they want to keep Cheng Lei’s hype while it’s still hot thus they’re dropping his drama almost every 2 weeks lol. He’s on a roll ! so happy for him!
while others comment on Cheng Lei’s physical appearance in the drama:
Cheng Lei is on fire here as a gangster lawyer 🔥🔥🔥
Loving him so far. He looks so good in a three-piece suit
and another commenter is thinking more about the history behind the Republican-era drama than the plot itself:
Everytime i watch Chinese dramas based in Shanghai before the CCP revolution i get why the communists won the support of the people.
Imagine the whole country in extreme poverty, farmers treated like cattle by landlords, warlords taking over regions, western forces influencing things….
Then we have the wealthy that liked going abroad to study and lived in opulence. I’m curious to see how they will portray the war in this drama.
Footprints of Change stars Tong Yao, Cheng Lei, Liu Yi Jun, Jelly Lin, Long Ni and Rain Wang.
The first 8 episodes of Footprints of Change are now streaming on iQIYI in the United States. Give it a try.
